COX ROIGIILT 11AXDLED. Ills Two Faccfi Completely veiled. In- Special rbouograidiic Brport for the Olnclnusti Ouette. On Thursday evening last, General Joe Ooigcr aildreesed a large meeting of the citizens of Pickaway county, in the town of Circleville. There were about six huudrcj parsons present, notwithstanding the grcutcsl efTort on (lie part of some "influential" men of the county to cause tho attendance to he as slim 08 possible. Mr. Goiger took the stand at 8 o'olock, and said : TUBKATS OF I If VOLUNTARY BATHING. Fcllow Citizens: I feci under many obliga tions to you for assembling in such large numbers to hear what 1 have to say, this evening, touching the political issues now bofore the people. I understand there has been considerable eil'ort mads to keep you from attending. There aro parties who hare left nothing undone to make the attendance ns thin as possible tins evening. I have been talked of as a wolf in sheep's clothing. It has been said that I was putting myself before the people ns a man acting with tho Democratic organization, but that in fact I was favoring the Republicans. I havo only to say in reference to this mailer that 1 have never been in any manner associated with the Repub lican organization. From the timo it became a party until now, 1 have louglit it. 1 have con tended against it at every step or lis advancement.When the Whig party ceased lo exist, I asso ciated myself with the Democratic party, and have sinco that timo labored earnestly and stead ily for the triumph of Democratic principles. I think that my course throughout I lie Stale has been well kuowu. I think 1 have made my mark as distinctlv ns any man was alilu to make it. The cry against me is not raised because I did not choose to act in a manly way and sustain legitimate, honest candidates of the party, but because 1 am not willing to sustain all the candidates of the party, no difleronco what may have becu their political conduct no dill'erenco what may have been their political rascality. Why, I was told in Columbus a day or two since, that it was dangerous for mo to come down to Pickaway county. A Democratic candiduto for Congress 8. S. Cox bad given it out that if I should go down into this county I should be mobbed that his popularity was so vast, his power so great, aud tho lovo of tho people for him so intense, that no man dare como up here and lisp the truth respecting him without danger of being mobbed. Indeed, the understanding was that I should be darted into tho canal. Allow ino to say that I am not afraid of the canal. I havo been where there was tmenly-teven feet of water in the Grand Tank. Great laughter. Now I pledge you my word of honor as a gentleman, that if brother Cox will appoint the timo and placo for me to meet any gentleman in Pickaway county to put me into (he canal, I will bo on band like a soro thumb, and submit ta the operation cheerfully. TUE PEOPLK or riCKAWAT. Pickaway county Is the first place in which I located in Ohio. Here nreall my old friends; here are the living and the dead all to whom I have been attached and I don't want to be ruled out simply by the threat of being ducked, because I see fit to oppose a political gambler. I like your county; not because of her physioal wealth; not because of her broad pastures; not because the farmer is paid for his toil; not because of the oat tie and Bueep of which you can boast; sot because the clatter of machinery is beard upon your waters; not because every department of industry teems with prosperity and sue cess. It is not your material wealth, but your high-minued, industrious men, that 1 value not that I wish to natter you in this respect, or to intimate that you are all such; for 1 have no doubt but that when the devil comes to crack bis hardest nuts, he will find some of them from Pickaway county but I do say there are those here who can feel liko men, think like men, act like men, anJ be like men. luese are the men to whom I wish to address myself this evening. I wish not lo speak to a man who is so blind a partisan that no dillerenoo what may no the principles of the man no difference how he may persist in error no difference how false a man's course may have been he will support him that no turpitude will make him leave the organization who is such a great partisan that if the party drifts to tho devil he will stay in me current. I want to talk to men of sense and intellect, men who feel that they have something higher and holier in them than obligations to mere party in short, men who reel tnat tney are American citizens. SKRVILIITTO PABTY If there is a man hero who thinks his high est duly is servility, tho sooner that man per isbes tho better for his country earth will bo more puro, and hell more corrupt when he dies, That is my notion of those men who are willing to go anything, and give up everything for the sake of party. 1 believe in party organization I believe when a parly presents honctt candi dates they should be supported by men belong' ing to the organization; but for a man to think he is bound to ko for the candidate whom he knows lo be unfit for the office he sooks lo rally to the support of anything that may be presented, no difference how base it may be I Bay that when a parly has got that low, a man is a slave and not a troo man wlio yields obedi' ence lo its behests. 1 believe in what is called Popular Sovereign ty. Applause.! 1 believe in a man being man, and exercising the rights of an American citizen wherever the American flag floats I dontcare whether in your own Stale, or wheth er in a Territory. I urn not willing to say that if a man has been in a Stale, and stood by the institutions of that State for many years, if ho is animated by a desire lo go West, and goes into your untrodden wild?, fells tho forests tames or drives out the savages, and slaughters the wild beasts, he is then to bo considered as unlit to exercise the privileges and immunities of an Amerioan citizen. He goes a land where lie tinds no ciiurclics, no Bchool houses and no homes; ho goes there for the sunt lo purposes or betlerin his condition and that of his family; and yet by so doing, according to the doctrine enunciated by the llreckinridgo party and the Republics party, he forfeits his rights as an American cili zen and becomes a uiero cipher in the history and action of his country. He is to have no vote for President of tho United Slates, no vote for members of Congress, and no vote in the for mationof the institutions or tho .territory which he becomes a resident. Ho is to be mere hewer of wood and drawer of water. Ho is to clear out the territory that ot hers may come in, and, after these hardships have been under gone, the sufferers are to be (old mat they can be permitted to exercise the rights of American citizenship, and not tut men. tub ntm-RiAT rt;n-RtNctPLE, Now, tho doctrines of Stephen A. Douglas (ire the right, true, sound aocirines doctrines Dy which every man oi noncstncari ougni io stand Weouirht not lo say mat tneso men who enu erate to a territory are to have no voire as . - il t their own institutions, but that the members of Congress from here, from Pennsylvania, and from God knows where, are to determine what thev shall have and what they shall be, an thereby make them the mere slaves of anyseo-tion of the country by the action of Congress, when thev have no representation there. The doctrine of Popular Sovereignty is th doctrine of the Constitution of the United States. I defy any man in this house, or any man in this county, to show me where the Constitution of the United States on this subject of slavery either prohibits or adopts it in the Territories. No man can find a solitary syllable denying the doctrines of Popular Sovereignty. No man can find a syllable which gives to Congress the power to legislate on the subject. The Constitution says in reference to this question, that Congress shall have power to dispose of and make all needful rules and regulations respecting the Territories or other property belonging to the United States. That is, needful rules and regulations for the government of tin property of the United Stales not for the property of men, and not for the property of tho individual, but for the property of the Government. Now it is very true that there is no implied nor expressed grant of power by whiob Congress can legislate upon this subjeot. There is nothing expressed and nothing implied. Now, where docs this power rest where has Congress ever exercised the power over a Territory? It has never been made the subjeot of replevin, of assumpsit, of trover. Congress has never lnid its hand upon Ihe properly of an individual in the Territories it has never legislated in regard to horses, hogs or cattle, and why should they legislate upon Urn subjeot of negroes, recognizing them as property, wlien it has never dared to take aotion upon the exclu- lon or permission of any other kind of pro perty in the Union? Never has it assumed that control. Let us see what the Constitution further says: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution nor prohibited by it to the Stales, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." The power that is not given to Congress specfically, is reserved to the Stales or to the poople. How are the States to aot upon this subject of slavery ? now are you in Ohio to act in referenoo to it? Tho Constitu- ion says that Congress has not the power to act in the premises; so we can do nothing through our representation in Congress. How can wo act then as a State? Why, the State can act upon the question within its own limits. It must be left to the people of the states, because they alone have power to act upon .it through their Legislatures It is the people who will be affected by it, and as far as it regards the Ter ritories Ihe peopleof the Territories they are the men to dotcrmfue upon this question of Slavery, and they alone, and the Constitution confers that power upon thoiu. The Republican and Ilreckinridge party each admit that when-over a Territory comes to form a Constitution, then it can vote upon and determine the question of freedom and slavery. They admit that the people as inhabitants of a territory, can vole pon and decide the question before they bo- oome a Stato. It is thus an acknowledgement of the power ot the people to aot upon it, and is only a question of time. Now, if the people of an organized Territory can vote upon tho ques tion ten days beforo they become a Slate, then hey have the full right to vole upon it ten years before. If you admit tlio power, the time is a matter of thorough insignilioanoo. That is tho doctrine, gentlemen, simply and plainly put forth, that each man shall bo recognized as a man wherever ho may be, nud thai tho Constitution of our common country has made express provision for that recognition. hat is a doctrine that was put forth Jong ago, but Stephen A. Douglas is at this timo regarded as its peculiar advocate and defender. There is no use in my talking to an American audience about who Stephen A. Douglas is. There is no uso in my telling this audience that thero was a time in my life when I had as thorough a detestation for that man as it was possible for me to have entertained for any man in the country. believed if there evor was a domagogue it was ho, and thafthere was a concealed devil in his every move. I have watched him since that timo. I have watched him breast the political storms which have visited our country, and I have seen him manfully battle for the princi ples which ho advocated, and no man who has watched his course can rail to admire it and love the man. COMPBOMISE MEASURES. Mr. Douglas maintains that in 1850 the doc trine of Popular Sovereignty was first enunciated by Mr. Clay, when tbe Compromise measures were passed. You all remember the circumstances attending tho passage of theso meas ures. You all recollect tho excitement that pre vailed upon the passage of the Fugitive Slave aw. lou rccollcot that a moeting was held at Columbus, and at that meeting a resolution was introduced censuring Henry Clay, (ijd bless him I I was your Senator that winter. Now, I told you beforo that I have been a great niau n my day and generation and I am Borne pump kins yet. Great laughter.1 I introduced resolu tions approving of the Compromise measures of 1800. I spoke a day and a halt or two days, and got another vote besido my own. I believe f 1 had spokon another day 1 wouldn t nave voted for thom myBelf. That exouement passed by, and in 1852 the two great parties agreed that they should let tne matter rest, jsotn con ventions indorsed the Compromise measures. After that came on the Kansas-jNebraska bill. Mr. Douglas introduced that bill, by, which the Missouri Compromise was repealed, and you all remember the excitement that prevailed at that time. Do vou remember- with what consternation men looked at eacn oilier, rue uemocrauc party was afraid to stand up to the doctrine. and a number of its members boiled. Hut few could be found who had courage-enough lo face the music, and stand by Douglas and the propagation of the doctrine. The wholo country was agitated. The men of the North said that the South was encroaching on their, rights that outpost after outpost had been yielded, citadel after citadel had been surrendered, nnd still the South was not satisfied. You all remember the groat shock that this country experienced in oousequence of the introduction of this Kansas-Nebraska bill. It was passed by almost the entire vote of tho South a nuvnbcr of men from the North vot in e for it also, iou remember very distinctly, ton, that when the Convention came to nominate for the Presidency, the Democratic partyjwas afraid to take Stephen A. Doug las, because tney mougm mere was bo mucn odium attached to his name that he could not be elected. They had thought the doctrine over, nnd, ns they thought, pondered it well, and saw exactly where it was going to lead. They know what must bo the necessary and inevitable result of that docerine of Popular Sovereignly. He (Douglas) knew very well that Slavery could not stand against Freedom. Tho very numo of Slavery means lo control, to fasten, to bind down, while Freedom means to expand through time into ctornal existence. He knew that whenever they came into collision, slavery would fall nnd freedom would rise. He knew, too, that the men of the North could go and Bottle in tho Territories while they of the South were getting ready to movo. That has been tho result. He saw that the Missouri Compromise would allow tho men of the ,North to go south of the line, nnd go there with their peculiar institutions, aud establish them just as had been the result. The South favored this measuro to a man. because they thought it would be nn invasion of the rights of the North Instead of that they see that the result leans to ward the North, and an outcry is raised against Douglas because he broke down tlie line by whioh. as thev now say, they were sheltered from invasion. 010 PUCK AND X.EC0MPT0N. Well. Mr. Buchanan got upon the platform, and as soon as ho had dono this, he declared that he was no longer James Buchanan, but was the Democratic platform the identical thing itself. He lost his own name and identi tv when he was eleotod President of tho United Stales. Douglas still clung to the doc Irine of Populor Sovereignty. He stood by his principles, and manfully maintained them. Then came up the controversy about Kansas. The constitution under which the Administra tion proposed to admit Kansas, was on of tbe most iniquitous and infernal instruments aver manufactured by human devils for th gov ernment of mankind. It was mean and con temptible. It was mean in tbe manner in which it proposed to earry out its own provisions. When the Convention net in the month of Angnst, it determined to adjourn until some lections took plaoe. Bat in the first plaoe, Calhoun and bis coadjutators published a statement to the effect that the Constitution was to be submitted to the people to be voted upon. After the October election, these gentlemen met again to frame a Constitution, and in it they iuserted a clause that every man should be sworn to support that Constitution before they should vote, and that any man that attempted to alter that Constitution, within ten years. should be imprisoned in the Penitentiary for three years. Ihe only proposition submitted to the people was the question of slavery, and that was submitted in a very uufair way. That Constitution came np for Congress to act upon. Contrary to all expectations, Mr. Buchanan recommended the admission of KanBas under the Lecompton Constitution, with that slavery clause which the Free State men had refused to vote for. Mr. Douglas opposed it Mr. Douglas' friends opposed it Mr. Cox opposed it. AM ITEM ABOUT DBOTUEa COX. Let me give you a little item of political history about brother Cox. I will give you my authorities for everything I state, so that there can be no mistake about tho matter. Before Mr. Cox wenl on to Washington in 1857, we in Columbus knew that Mr. Buchanan was going to recommend the Lecompton Constitution. I went to the Stafcamanofticoaiidloldlhocditors, Messrs. Smith & Foster, that Mr. Cox was very doubtful as to bow he would go this doctrine, and that he must bo made right. Just ns we wero talking, Mr. Cox came in, and we asked him about it; he didn't seem to have settled his own opinion as to what he should do. We told him a man couldn't live in Ohio unless ho opposed the Lecompton measure. Uuder our pressure Mr. Cox agreed to op- pot: tt. Mr. bun in wrote an nrtiolo and put it into the paper, representing Mr. Cox all right, and saying that " our gallant representative was brimfull of opposition to Lecoinptonism." Mr. Cox complained at Washington that this article bound him, and to a certain extent destroyed his utility. Then Mr. Cox had to go against Lecompton. lie opened his battery against Lecompton, and denounced it as a fraud, a.swiudlo, and a corruption. He couldn't find words too strong for its denunciation. After ho did go in, he went in like the devil. A good many of our men were very prudent and cautious upon the subject and held hack for a while. Finally, nttcr considerable effort, the Lecompton Constitution was killed. Then something else had to be done. The parties were a little like tho boys who wero caught in a tremendous thunderstorm. The lightning struck the tree near which they wore sitting, and tho big one says, "Bill, can yon pray?" "No" says Bill. "Sam, can you pray?" "No," says Sam. "Well then," says the bigfellow, "I'll bo damned if I don't have to do it myself, for something must be done." Applause. So it wns here. Something hud to be done, bo there wns brought out the English bill. What was the English hill? Was it such a thing as an houost, honorable representative would dare to submit to the people and ask them to vote upon? Was it asking them to fake or re ject tho Lecompton Constitution in an honost way No it was nothing but a dirty, pitiful, contemptible bribe. They did not dare to say, Gontleinon, here is the Constitution, and it is for you to vole upon it, wholhor you will aeoept it or rojoot it. Thoy had not the honor to take such a course, but like base, dirty, mean politicians, they tried to swindle the people and force it upon them anyhow. They said to the people of Kansas, we make a proposition to you. That proposition is, will you lake from seven to thirty millions of land 1 If you will, vote "proposition." If you will not, vote "proposition rejected." If you lake th land, the Lecompton Constitution goes with it. If you don't take the land, you don't get any land, nor any Constitution either. Laughter. That was tho proposition. That Constitution which Sam Cox had denounoed as vilo and infamous, as a fraud and a tyranny, he voted to bribe the people by giving them millions of aorcs f land to adopt thus agreeing to pay men for iniquity aud shame, for putting their hands up to their mouths and their mouths in the dust, and cry ing out unto themselves, ''Unolean, unolean." And that is the honorable laughter gentleman for whom I am to vote on pain of being denounced ns a deserter from the Democratic ranks. Applause. TUE "BECEKANT" COX.

Douglas never wavered in the maintenance of tho right, and what was the consequence? Ho with Broderick stood alone in tho Senate. Broderick was the only man who dared to stand with him there, and Brod erick for that act has since been slaughtered in cold blood, no stood there, a man who had been the idol of the Senate, whose word bad governed it; to whom others had looked up and bowed down deserted and douounoed. Whore was S. S. Cox then ? If ever thero was a period when Mr. Donglas needed friends and called upon thorn to como over and help him, that was tho time. And where was Cox? Mr. Cox know, when ho Bneakcd away nnd deserted Mr. Douglas, that he was acting contrary to the expressed wish of his constituents. Tho Democratio heart of this Distriot was warm in ils devotion to Stephen A. Douglas, and applauded his mainteinanre of tho principles of Popular Sovereignty. But Mr. Cox had turned traitor to Douglas, and not satisfied with turning traitor then, he now comes beforo the people aud asks them to indorse) his com so by his re-election, for the purpose of sheltering himself in his base desertion in this our time of trial. Mr. Cox eels out now that he voted for the English bill, and that S. A. Douglas advised him to do it. Laughter, That is what he slates, and that is what is charged in the Ohio State Journal and in the Columbus Cily Fact. It is published in the papers that Mr. Douglas acted the hypocrite. It is published on the authority of S. S. Cox. Look at the position in which Mr. Douglas would be plaeed hy this. Can anything be more unreasonable than the assertion of Mr. Cox? Mr. Douglas voted against the bill, and the en-tiro Illinois delegation voted against it. It must have been that Mr. Douglas was exceed ingly anxious for the bill to pass, or else be would not have recommended nuythiug of the kind. If Mr. Cox wished, he could have killed it in tho house. Is there a man here who is silly enough to believe that Douglas advised a course of this kind ? What did Douglas say about the matter ? I saw him immediately af ter that vote waB given. I went to see him at his house, when friends did not crowd about him as plentiful as they do now. He did not then Stand high in the estimation of tho Senate, but was being hooted and hissed at by some who but a short timo before were his friends. I called his attention to the subject, and told him what Mr. Cox had said, and asked him, "How does it happen that you advise our represonta live to vote one way, while you yourself vote another wav? "Did Mr. Cox Bay so? said Mr. Douirlas. "Yes, sir," said I, "he did." "Why, said Mr. Donglas, "I told him that the path of polioy was the path of duly, and that ho should stand firm. now, Mr. cox is saying tnat mr. Donglas acted the hypocrite, and told him to vote for the Entrlish bill, while he himself voted against it. I saw Douglas in the presence of Mr. Smith in June last, and called his attention to the matter. He said ha distinctly rccollooted. our prior conversation, and all about advising Cox to vote with him. It is surprising that Mr. Cox has not more regard for himself than to bring up an issue of veracity at this tim. MB. cox "D0POCS." Now Mr. Cox understood exactly what was going on hers while he was in Washington, for h sent a speoial messenger from Washington to Columbus while the question was being agitated, and wrote a communication filling two sheets, stating what were Douglas' arguments against tho bill, and asking his friends to consult on the subjeot, expressing himself opposed to the English Bill. We had Jacob Reinhard, Jas. II. Smith, Col. Anderson, Wayn Griswold, Charles J. Foster, and myself, and several other men in the Democratio party, and we consulted and telegraphed to him toopposethe English bill. Mr. Cox telegraphed back, "I breath easier; all right; Douglas will open out against itto-morrow." Laughter. To-morrow came, and the next day came and Mr. Cox voted for the English Bill in violation and defiance of tho instruction of bis constituency. He now tries to get out of it by saying that he telegraphed to Smith, and that Smith telegraphed back to him to do his duly, aud his frionds would stand by him. Mr Cox fails to tell that Thomas Miller joined with him in that telegraph. They didn't suppose, however, that he would think bis duty was to disregard the instructions lie had reoeivod. But he gives bis rote for th English Bill. There was no man more indignant nt this than Tom Miller. lie said he (Cox) had just hung on long enough to have his head out off. and then supported the Administration. I tell you that Mr. Cox found out that in fighting the Administration ho had not many frionds in Washington, and no chance of gaining the smile of power. He had no encouragement from the mou who bad tbe patronage his best friend having boen removed from office. Mr. Cox wanted to go back, and whon the vote came on the English bill, he felt very solemn about it ho felt so solemn about it that when the question came up, ho says, as is reported in the Conjretsional Globe, on page l'JOl, "I wish to Bay here, and in reference to the remarks which were made by my venerable colleague, Mr. Giddings. " Who would have thought that this man, who is almost but not quite as bad ns myself in his dotestation of negroes, would sympathize with Mr. Giddings but this is his speech. I will proceed with it: "Yestorday amid the exciting scone whioh then took plaoe in which he had my fullestsympathy I wish to say, fur myself and my colloaguos on this side of tho chamber, that we stood by the House bill reported there so long as we could in good faith, until tho last hopo of carrying it was gono. I stood with them as long as I saw any bore of currying it. Uut sir, now that this conference report has cut of every chance of seeing my views on the subjeot carried out, with no opportunity of amending the report itseir, 1 will do the best I oan under the oiroumstanoes, and I hope the gentleman will give mo credit at least for honest motives in the course I have taken." Now, let ran say berc you will see that Mr. Cox says that thore was no hopo of amending the report that ho states very distinctly in his last speech, wherein ho sympa thizes With Giddings. COVODB? HATTERS. Mr. Cox came bofore the Covod Committee, and when he oame there ho swore that the bill was changed after it was reported. I have tho bill hero as it was rcporfod, and 1 have it as it was passod. Iwillgivonny man n Pickaway county the best horse in the oounty if he will show me a change to the orossing of a "t" or tho dotting of an "i." Mr. Coi says it was changed to suit him. I say it was not, but that he voted for it just as it was reported. It was rammed down his throat after he had opposed it in the beginning and worked againsl it Btroog-ly. At the close of the discussion he got new light from some quarter, and went for the bill. What was this new light ( Uod only knows, for I don't. I oannot tell what peculiar vision burst upon him at that particular time, but I da know that in defiance of the instructions given him he voted for the bill. lie voted for it notwithstand ing he wrote this letter: House or Representatives, ) Washington City, Feb. 6, 1858. Gentlemen: lour invitation comes to me in the midst of an unexampled midnight strug-glo it the popular branoh of Congress. I can only say that if the same spirit which here inspires the Democratio members with whom I act will infuse nnd energizo your own expressions on the 8th instant, there will be a poten tial emphasis in favor or the right or the people of our own Slates and Territories to do as lliey please iu men- una uusiuues, uiuruui- moled by cabals and unencumbered by fraud A border oligarchy have not shown them selves to bo such angels that they should arro gate to themselvos that sceptre of authority which alone belongs to the people of Kansas. Whilo I have a vote in tho Congress it shall never be dragged into tins Lecompton mire. This is my deliberate judgment and my irrevo cable will. I cannot say or do otherwise so help ras God. Not while Douglas stands in tho Senate, not, while Wise Bpoaks from his Virgin innvatioan. not whilo Walker can give us wis dom, or Stanton can utter truth, or Stuart can nrguo the law, or Fornoy can wiold the pen, or the Northwest can echo tho aggregate thunder of those tribunes of the peoplo, shall this great. rong be done in the face or thirty millions of freemen. ours, sc., SAMUEL S.

He wrote tAaf letter, anu yet ne naa uocided to voto for giving millions of acres of land to the people of Kansas it tney would permit them selves to be dragged through the dirty Lecomp ton mire. That is tne man tnat i am not a Democrat if I don't bow down to and shout loud hazannas for. the cou;mbvs postoffice. . : Now. irentlemen, I wish to say a thing in re gard to tbe Columbus Postoffioe. Mr. Miller had been the best friend Mr. Cox ever had. He had stood steadily and faithfully by him; ho had him nominated for Congress. Miller was turned out of the Postofhcc in conscqucnoe to his devo tion to Douglas. Mr. Cox felt this, and was anxious tnat no suouiu oe restored simply on that aoeount. Mr. Miller swears, and so does Mr. Cox, that there was nothing said about the postoflice at the time he voted for the English jtil that mere was no arrangement, made un til Col. Medary was about being i amoved. can only give you the facts. I know nothing about it myself; but I do Bay this that two as reputable Democrats as we havo in tho city of Columbs, camuei Doyie ana uan. l.awrencc, told me that when Mr. Cox came home from Washington, aboul three weeks after voting for the English BUI, no told them that Mr. Mate: was to be restored to the postolEoe. It may he that theso men wore mistaken: it may be tha Mr. Cox did't know anything about it nt Hie time: but I cannot help thinkinir that he knew just exactly what was to be done. But I will not go on wilh this however. I want to come to those Covode Committee matters. In 1858 Mr, Cox pretended to be a great friend to Mr. Douglas, but when Mr. Douglas and tbe Administra tion fell out, we fiud his friendship consider ably weakened. Keaa tuo report of tho com mince, lead the testimony of Miller nnd Smith, and you can see that Mr. Cox enters intonn ar rangement Dy which th Vhio Statesman was to be sold out to the support of the Administra tion. Thrco weeks after Mr. Cox had given hi vote for the English Bill. Gov. Medary was at Washington. Me was not an instrument, but friend of Mr. Buchanan's. TUB TRICK OK AN ORGAN TO PLAT arhinistra TION TUNES. Gov. Medary, Thomas Miller and S. S. Cox drow up a writing in which thoy declare that they are going to be friends, and that the Ohio Statetman shall givo an acceptable support to Hi Administration of James Buchanan. Mr. Mil ler swears that there was some talk of about $0,(HK) of patronage in the shape of postoffioe blanks to be dispensed, and that in the event of the Statetman i supporting Buchanan he expected it would receive a portion of this patronage. Tber was 27,O0O worth to be printed. Th $27,000 worth was printed for $3,000 f 24,000 being a bonus. He thought the Statetman ought to be entitled to $t,000 of that. Mr. Miller and Mr. Cox agreed that the Ohio Statetman should desert Douglas and go for the Administration, and against him. I don't know whether they did this merely for the $0,000 anticipated. If they did, that was some compensation-then they were bribed to go against him. Perhaps they supported the Administration for no pecuniary compensations. If so, they deserted Douglas without any pay, and bound themselves to fight for the Administration, to back James Buchanan up, and break Douglas down as far as they could. These gentlemen came to Ohio. Mr. Miller had with him the agreement in Cox's own handwriting. They go to the Statetman office, and asked Jas. II. Smith what he had to say ' upon that matter. Smith says, I can't have anything to do with it. I am a Douglas man, and can't enter into this oontraot. There was a provision in tha agreoment that Smith was to be the Bole editor. Mr. Smith declined, and the consequence was that th paper dropped through, because nothing could be accomplished without Mr. Smith chose to father it; but Mr. Cox drew and signed tbe paper to make the Statetman support the Administration in its war against Douglas. In 1858, Mr. Cox was a candidate for Congress. He goes around now and says that Judge Donglas was a great friend of his, and very anxious for bis eleolion. He told the people that the Judge said that he would have walked clear from Chicago to vote for him. I don t know it may be that Judge Douglas said so. Perhaps Judge Douglas wrote letters to different parties, urging them to support Mr. Cox. I have no doubt, howover, that Mr. Cox solicited it, and that on being interrogated, Douglas diil say to him, I prefer you to your Ropublican opponent. Through this means Mr. Cox made votes for bis eleotion in Ootober, and ns a Douglas Demoorat he was relumed to Congress. Now he has no hesitancy in telling the people that he was returned by a bigger majority than before, because he opposed Judge Doug-, las and voted for the Englislf Bill. During the canvass of 1858 Mr. Cox, and his bosom friend Mr. Miller both pledged their honor that immediately after our October election Mr. Cox should go to Illinois and stump the Slate for the benefit of Judge Douglas. Now what did Cox do? Why, he never interested himself at all in behalf of Judge Douglas, but went djreotly to James Buchanan, and there begged for tho six thousand dollars for the Ohio Statetman. Instead of going to Washington to support Douglas, he went there to use his best endeavors to sell him out. Ha went there to complete his contract between Buchanan and the Statetman. He never cared about Douglas or tho oause of Popular Sovereignly, for which the Judge was contending, but oonoludod, after deliberation, that his best game was to keep quiet and let Douglas take care of himself, and fight his own battles with Buchanan and Lecompton- ism. He knew very well that if he took sides with Douglas the Administration would orush him and keep his friend out of the post-oflioe. S. 8. AND J. O. ENTER INTO ARRANGEMENTS. Well, brother Samuel S. made his arrange ments with his friend Jamos Buchanan, and Mr. Miller went back again into the post-ofnoe, through his instrumentality, and his alone. Now, my friends, 1 ask you, is there a man here who believes that if Mr. Cox had deolared himself in favor of Mr. Douglas, Mr. Buchanan would have appointed Miller lo tho post-office ? Cries of "No, not" . He got tho "patronage" from don'tknow it already, that no man evor gets that patronage until he brings good evidence that he is Mr. Buchanan's friend. Cries of "That's so." I would like to know when Cox has doserted Jtuohanan. I would like to Know whon he has favored Judge Douglas in any thing. I would like to know where Mr. Cox is now. He may "talk Douglas, but he don t "act" Douglas. Why, what says Mr. Forney in his letter to the Philadelphia J'rett. Why, gentlemen, Mr. Forney says and hes good authority in such matters writing from Washington, that Mr. Cox is regarded as being se cretly for Breckinridge and Lane. That's what he says. And what says Mr. Cox himself? Does he dare to say has he yet dared to say that if (ho election goes to tho Honse of Representatives . he will not vote for Breckinridge? Does he dare to say that he is in favor of the removal of Breckinridge office-holders. Where, I ask you, as candid men, has he shown himself in favor of Stephen A. Douglas against the Administration? Yes, and what party was it that disrupted your Conventions? What party is it that keeps Stephen A. Douglas from being President of Ihe United Stolen? It is not your Lincoln party, nor your Bell party, but it is your Breckinridge party. Applause. That Breckinridge Disunion party is sucking the Btrcngth out of the Democratic party, and that is the organization, if any, which will prevent tho election of Douglas. Mr. Cox has words of encouragement and consolation for the Seceders. He dare not tell them that they are bolters and disunionists. II o has not the manliness to come out and denounce them.- No, gentlemen, he may detest them, perhaps, ho may; but he has not tho voice of a freeman; and the Douglas man who dares speak against them, who refuses to vote for the man who is too cringing, too low to speak out the honest sentiments of his heart, is to be regarded as a traitor to the Democratio party. God grant that I may always be a traitor if treachery oonsists in opposition to this class of politicians. Applause. c i. . A CLEVER BREOKINRIPGH MAN. Gen. W. S. V. Prentiss is personally as clever a gentleman aB thero is in Ohio, but he is constantly ripping off the heads of Douglas men throughout tho Stato. He is the man who planned and brought togother tho Breckinridge State . Convention, and who has done more to injure Judge Douglas than any single man in Ohio. Mr. Cox is his constant companion and bosom, friend. They are always close together. Mr. Prentiss says that Cox satisfies him exactly. Mr. Prentiss stands by and supports Mr. Cox. He is engaged all the time in breaking down every Douglas man he can reach; yet Mr. Cox is bis peculiar pet. The Ohio Statetman, ' the organ of Mr) Cox, has bcemcompletely mnz-tlcd for Ihe Inst three weeks as against Breckinridge. Fearing it might injure Cox to denounce these foes of Douglas, it keeps perfeotly quiet and gentle. He controle9 the columns, and nothing that would in the least incense tbe friends of Breckinridge is published by the editors or allowed to appear in communications. Thus Ihe Statetman is stifled through his instru-mentality. But he makes direct propositions to the Breckinridge men, and states his willing- ness, and promises to serve them. What did Mr. Cox say to Doctor Dawson ? Now Doctor Dawson didn't disclose this conversation between him nnd Mr. Cox because be was opposed to Mr. Cox not nt all. The Breckinridge men were talking together one day about gelling out a candidate for Congress. Well, said the Doctor, "I was going along by the American House a few days ago, when Cox came along and saluted me and said, 'Doctor, of course you're going to vote for me.' That depends a great deal on how you behave yonrsell',' said tho Dootor. 'Why,' said Cox, 'I'm all right. I make no distinction between a Douglas man and a Breckinridge man. I told some Breckinridge men in Licking county that I would go over nnd make speechos for them at their meeting.' " This has been charged in Mr. Cox's teoth, and a deninl defied, nnd Mv. Cox has not dared publioly to dony tlio statement of Dr. Dawson, for no man who knows Dawson will for a moment doubt bis truthful ness. That is the kind of a Douglas man you aro going to vote for, is it? A man who has been engaged, and is engaged Btill in breaking up. the Douglas party in Ohio, and trampling the principles of Popular Sovereignty into the

COX ROIGIILT 11AXDLED. Ills Two Faccfi Completely veiled. In- Special rbouograidiic Brport for the Olnclnusti Ouette. On Thursday evening last, General Joe Ooigcr aildreesed a large meeting of the citizens of Pickaway county, in the town of Circleville. There were about six huudrcj parsons present, notwithstanding the grcutcsl efTort on (lie part of some "influential" men of the county to cause tho attendance to he as slim 08 possible. Mr. Goiger took the stand at 8 o'olock, and said : TUBKATS OF I If VOLUNTARY BATHING. Fcllow Citizens: I feci under many obliga tions to you for assembling in such large numbers to hear what 1 have to say, this evening, touching the political issues now bofore the people. I understand there has been considerable eil'ort mads to keep you from attending. There aro parties who hare left nothing undone to make the attendance ns thin as possible tins evening. I have been talked of as a wolf in sheep's clothing. It has been said that I was putting myself before the people ns a man acting with tho Democratic organization, but that in fact I was favoring the Republicans. I havo only to say in reference to this mailer that 1 have never been in any manner associated with the Repub lican organization. From the timo it became a party until now, 1 have louglit it. 1 have con tended against it at every step or lis advancement.When the Whig party ceased lo exist, I asso ciated myself with the Democratic party, and have sinco that timo labored earnestly and stead ily for the triumph of Democratic principles. I think that my course throughout I lie Stale has been well kuowu. I think 1 have made my mark as distinctlv ns any man was alilu to make it. The cry against me is not raised because I did not choose to act in a manly way and sustain legitimate, honest candidates of the party, but because 1 am not willing to sustain all the candidates of the party, no difleronco what may have becu their political conduct no dill'erenco what may have been their political rascality. Why, I was told in Columbus a day or two since, that it was dangerous for mo to come down to Pickaway county. A Democratic candiduto for Congress 8. S. Cox bad given it out that if I should go down into this county I should be mobbed that his popularity was so vast, his power so great, aud tho lovo of tho people for him so intense, that no man dare como up here and lisp the truth respecting him without danger of being mobbed. Indeed, the understanding was that I should be darted into tho canal. Allow ino to say that I am not afraid of the canal. I havo been where there was tmenly-teven feet of water in the Grand Tank. Great laughter. Now I pledge you my word of honor as a gentleman, that if brother Cox will appoint the timo and placo for me to meet any gentleman in Pickaway county to put me into (he canal, I will bo on band like a soro thumb, and submit ta the operation cheerfully. TUE PEOPLK or riCKAWAT. Pickaway county Is the first place in which I located in Ohio. Here nreall my old friends; here are the living and the dead all to whom I have been attached and I don't want to be ruled out simply by the threat of being ducked, because I see fit to oppose a political gambler. I like your county; not because of her physioal wealth; not because of her broad pastures; not because the farmer is paid for his toil; not because of the oat tie and Bueep of which you can boast; sot because the clatter of machinery is beard upon your waters; not because every department of industry teems with prosperity and sue cess. It is not your material wealth, but your high-minued, industrious men, that 1 value not that I wish to natter you in this respect, or to intimate that you are all such; for 1 have no doubt but that when the devil comes to crack bis hardest nuts, he will find some of them from Pickaway county but I do say there are those here who can feel liko men, think like men, act like men, anJ be like men. luese are the men to whom I wish to address myself this evening. I wish not lo speak to a man who is so blind a partisan that no dillerenoo what may no the principles of the man no difference how he may persist in error no difference how false a man's course may have been he will support him that no turpitude will make him leave the organization who is such a great partisan that if the party drifts to tho devil he will stay in me current. I want to talk to men of sense and intellect, men who feel that they have something higher and holier in them than obligations to mere party in short, men who reel tnat tney are American citizens. SKRVILIITTO PABTY If there is a man hero who thinks his high est duly is servility, tho sooner that man per isbes tho better for his country earth will bo more puro, and hell more corrupt when he dies, That is my notion of those men who are willing to go anything, and give up everything for the sake of party. 1 believe in party organization I believe when a parly presents honctt candi dates they should be supported by men belong' ing to the organization; but for a man to think he is bound to ko for the candidate whom he knows lo be unfit for the office he sooks lo rally to the support of anything that may be presented, no difference how base it may be I Bay that when a parly has got that low, a man is a slave and not a troo man wlio yields obedi' ence lo its behests. 1 believe in what is called Popular Sovereign ty. Applause.! 1 believe in a man being man, and exercising the rights of an American citizen wherever the American flag floats I dontcare whether in your own Stale, or wheth er in a Territory. I urn not willing to say that if a man has been in a Stale, and stood by the institutions of that State for many years, if ho is animated by a desire lo go West, and goes into your untrodden wild?, fells tho forests tames or drives out the savages, and slaughters the wild beasts, he is then to bo considered as unlit to exercise the privileges and immunities of an Amerioan citizen. He goes a land where lie tinds no ciiurclics, no Bchool houses and no homes; ho goes there for the sunt lo purposes or betlerin his condition and that of his family; and yet by so doing, according to the doctrine enunciated by the llreckinridgo party and the Republics party, he forfeits his rights as an American cili zen and becomes a uiero cipher in the history and action of his country. He is to have no vote for President of tho United Slates, no vote for members of Congress, and no vote in the for mationof the institutions or tho .territory which he becomes a resident. Ho is to be mere hewer of wood and drawer of water. Ho is to clear out the territory that ot hers may come in, and, after these hardships have been under gone, the sufferers are to be (old mat they can be permitted to exercise the rights of American citizenship, and not tut men. tub ntm-RiAT rt;n-RtNctPLE, Now, tho doctrines of Stephen A. Douglas (ire the right, true, sound aocirines doctrines Dy which every man oi noncstncari ougni io stand Weouirht not lo say mat tneso men who enu erate to a territory are to have no voire as . - il t their own institutions, but that the members of Congress from here, from Pennsylvania, and from God knows where, are to determine what thev shall have and what they shall be, an thereby make them the mere slaves of anyseo-tion of the country by the action of Congress, when thev have no representation there. The doctrine of Popular Sovereignty is th doctrine of the Constitution of the United States. I defy any man in this house, or any man in this county, to show me where the Constitution of the United States on this subject of slavery either prohibits or adopts it in the Territories. No man can find a solitary syllable denying the doctrines of Popular Sovereignty. No man can find a syllable which gives to Congress the power to legislate on the subject. The Constitution says in reference to this question, that Congress shall have power to dispose of and make all needful rules and regulations respecting the Territories or other property belonging to the United States. That is, needful rules and regulations for the government of tin property of the United Stales not for the property of men, and not for the property of tho individual, but for the property of the Government. Now it is very true that there is no implied nor expressed grant of power by whiob Congress can legislate upon this subjeot. There is nothing expressed and nothing implied. Now, where docs this power rest where has Congress ever exercised the power over a Territory? It has never been made the subjeot of replevin, of assumpsit, of trover. Congress has never lnid its hand upon Ihe properly of an individual in the Territories it has never legislated in regard to horses, hogs or cattle, and why should they legislate upon Urn subjeot of negroes, recognizing them as property, wlien it has never dared to take aotion upon the exclu- lon or permission of any other kind of pro perty in the Union? Never has it assumed that control. Let us see what the Constitution further says: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution nor prohibited by it to the Stales, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." The power that is not given to Congress specfically, is reserved to the Stales or to the poople. How are the States to aot upon this subject of slavery ? now are you in Ohio to act in referenoo to it? Tho Constitu- ion says that Congress has not the power to act in the premises; so we can do nothing through our representation in Congress. How can wo act then as a State? Why, the State can act upon the question within its own limits. It must be left to the people of the states, because they alone have power to act upon .it through their Legislatures It is the people who will be affected by it, and as far as it regards the Ter ritories Ihe peopleof the Territories they are the men to dotcrmfue upon this question of Slavery, and they alone, and the Constitution confers that power upon thoiu. The Republican and Ilreckinridge party each admit that when-over a Territory comes to form a Constitution, then it can vote upon and determine the question of freedom and slavery. They admit that the people as inhabitants of a territory, can vole pon and decide the question before they bo- oome a Stato. It is thus an acknowledgement of the power ot the people to aot upon it, and is only a question of time. Now, if the people of an organized Territory can vote upon tho ques tion ten days beforo they become a Slate, then hey have the full right to vole upon it ten years before. If you admit tlio power, the time is a matter of thorough insignilioanoo. That is tho doctrine, gentlemen, simply and plainly put forth, that each man shall bo recognized as a man wherever ho may be, nud thai tho Constitution of our common country has made express provision for that recognition. hat is a doctrine that was put forth Jong ago, but Stephen A. Douglas is at this timo regarded as its peculiar advocate and defender. There is no use in my talking to an American audience about who Stephen A. Douglas is. There is no uso in my telling this audience that thero was a time in my life when I had as thorough a detestation for that man as it was possible for me to have entertained for any man in the country. believed if there evor was a domagogue it was ho, and thafthere was a concealed devil in his every move. I have watched him since that timo. I have watched him breast the political storms which have visited our country, and I have seen him manfully battle for the princi ples which ho advocated, and no man who has watched his course can rail to admire it and love the man. COMPBOMISE MEASURES. Mr. Douglas maintains that in 1850 the doc trine of Popular Sovereignty was first enunciated by Mr. Clay, when tbe Compromise measures were passed. You all remember the circumstances attending tho passage of theso meas ures. You all recollect tho excitement that pre vailed upon the passage of the Fugitive Slave aw. lou rccollcot that a moeting was held at Columbus, and at that meeting a resolution was introduced censuring Henry Clay, (ijd bless him I I was your Senator that winter. Now, I told you beforo that I have been a great niau n my day and generation and I am Borne pump kins yet. Great laughter.1 I introduced resolu tions approving of the Compromise measures of 1800. I spoke a day and a halt or two days, and got another vote besido my own. I believe f 1 had spokon another day 1 wouldn t nave voted for thom myBelf. That exouement passed by, and in 1852 the two great parties agreed that they should let tne matter rest, jsotn con ventions indorsed the Compromise measures. After that came on the Kansas-jNebraska bill. Mr. Douglas introduced that bill, by, which the Missouri Compromise was repealed, and you all remember the excitement that prevailed at that time. Do vou remember- with what consternation men looked at eacn oilier, rue uemocrauc party was afraid to stand up to the doctrine. and a number of its members boiled. Hut few could be found who had courage-enough lo face the music, and stand by Douglas and the propagation of the doctrine. The wholo country was agitated. The men of the North said that the South was encroaching on their, rights that outpost after outpost had been yielded, citadel after citadel had been surrendered, nnd still the South was not satisfied. You all remember the groat shock that this country experienced in oousequence of the introduction of this Kansas-Nebraska bill. It was passed by almost the entire vote of tho South a nuvnbcr of men from the North vot in e for it also, iou remember very distinctly, ton, that when the Convention came to nominate for the Presidency, the Democratic partyjwas afraid to take Stephen A. Doug las, because tney mougm mere was bo mucn odium attached to his name that he could not be elected. They had thought the doctrine over, nnd, ns they thought, pondered it well, and saw exactly where it was going to lead. They know what must bo the necessary and inevitable result of that docerine of Popular Sovereignly. He (Douglas) knew very well that Slavery could not stand against Freedom. Tho very numo of Slavery means lo control, to fasten, to bind down, while Freedom means to expand through time into ctornal existence. He knew that whenever they came into collision, slavery would fall nnd freedom would rise. He knew, too, that the men of the North could go and Bottle in tho Territories while they of the South were getting ready to movo. That has been tho result. He saw that the Missouri Compromise would allow tho men of the ,North to go south of the line, nnd go there with their peculiar institutions, aud establish them just as had been the result. The South favored this measuro to a man. because they thought it would be nn invasion of the rights of the North Instead of that they see that the result leans to ward the North, and an outcry is raised against Douglas because he broke down tlie line by whioh. as thev now say, they were sheltered from invasion. 010 PUCK AND X.EC0MPT0N. Well. Mr. Buchanan got upon the platform, and as soon as ho had dono this, he declared that he was no longer James Buchanan, but was the Democratic platform the identical thing itself. He lost his own name and identi tv when he was eleotod President of tho United Stales. Douglas still clung to the doc Irine of Populor Sovereignty. He stood by his principles, and manfully maintained them. Then came up the controversy about Kansas. The constitution under which the Administra tion proposed to admit Kansas, was on of tbe most iniquitous and infernal instruments aver manufactured by human devils for th gov ernment of mankind. It was mean and con temptible. It was mean in tbe manner in which it proposed to earry out its own provisions. When the Convention net in the month of Angnst, it determined to adjourn until some lections took plaoe. Bat in the first plaoe, Calhoun and bis coadjutators published a statement to the effect that the Constitution was to be submitted to the people to be voted upon. After the October election, these gentlemen met again to frame a Constitution, and in it they iuserted a clause that every man should be sworn to support that Constitution before they should vote, and that any man that attempted to alter that Constitution, within ten years. should be imprisoned in the Penitentiary for three years. Ihe only proposition submitted to the people was the question of slavery, and that was submitted in a very uufair way. That Constitution came np for Congress to act upon. Contrary to all expectations, Mr. Buchanan recommended the admission of KanBas under the Lecompton Constitution, with that slavery clause which the Free State men had refused to vote for. Mr. Douglas opposed it Mr. Douglas' friends opposed it Mr. Cox opposed it. AM ITEM ABOUT DBOTUEa COX. Let me give you a little item of political history about brother Cox. I will give you my authorities for everything I state, so that there can be no mistake about tho matter. Before Mr. Cox wenl on to Washington in 1857, we in Columbus knew that Mr. Buchanan was going to recommend the Lecompton Constitution. I went to the Stafcamanofticoaiidloldlhocditors, Messrs. Smith & Foster, that Mr. Cox was very doubtful as to bow he would go this doctrine, and that he must bo made right. Just ns we wero talking, Mr. Cox came in, and we asked him about it; he didn't seem to have settled his own opinion as to what he should do. We told him a man couldn't live in Ohio unless ho opposed the Lecompton measure. Uuder our pressure Mr. Cox agreed to op- pot: tt. Mr. bun in wrote an nrtiolo and put it into the paper, representing Mr. Cox all right, and saying that " our gallant representative was brimfull of opposition to Lecoinptonism." Mr. Cox complained at Washington that this article bound him, and to a certain extent destroyed his utility. Then Mr. Cox had to go against Lecompton. lie opened his battery against Lecompton, and denounced it as a fraud, a.swiudlo, and a corruption. He couldn't find words too strong for its denunciation. After ho did go in, he went in like the devil. A good many of our men were very prudent and cautious upon the subject and held hack for a while. Finally, nttcr considerable effort, the Lecompton Constitution was killed. Then something else had to be done. The parties were a little like tho boys who wero caught in a tremendous thunderstorm. The lightning struck the tree near which they wore sitting, and tho big one says, "Bill, can yon pray?" "No" says Bill. "Sam, can you pray?" "No," says Sam. "Well then," says the bigfellow, "I'll bo damned if I don't have to do it myself, for something must be done." Applause. So it wns here. Something hud to be done, bo there wns brought out the English bill. What was the English hill? Was it such a thing as an houost, honorable representative would dare to submit to the people and ask them to vote upon? Was it asking them to fake or re ject tho Lecompton Constitution in an honost way No it was nothing but a dirty, pitiful, contemptible bribe. They did not dare to say, Gontleinon, here is the Constitution, and it is for you to vole upon it, wholhor you will aeoept it or rojoot it. Thoy had not the honor to take such a course, but like base, dirty, mean politicians, they tried to swindle the people and force it upon them anyhow. They said to the people of Kansas, we make a proposition to you. That proposition is, will you lake from seven to thirty millions of land 1 If you will, vote "proposition." If you will not, vote "proposition rejected." If you lake th land, the Lecompton Constitution goes with it. If you don't take the land, you don't get any land, nor any Constitution either. Laughter. That was tho proposition. That Constitution which Sam Cox had denounoed as vilo and infamous, as a fraud and a tyranny, he voted to bribe the people by giving them millions of aorcs f land to adopt thus agreeing to pay men for iniquity aud shame, for putting their hands up to their mouths and their mouths in the dust, and cry ing out unto themselves, ''Unolean, unolean." And that is the honorable laughter gentleman for whom I am to vote on pain of being denounced ns a deserter from the Democratic ranks. Applause. TUE "BECEKANT" COX.

Douglas never wavered in the maintenance of tho right, and what was the consequence? Ho with Broderick stood alone in tho Senate. Broderick was the only man who dared to stand with him there, and Brod erick for that act has since been slaughtered in cold blood, no stood there, a man who had been the idol of the Senate, whose word bad governed it; to whom others had looked up and bowed down deserted and douounoed. Whore was S. S. Cox then ? If ever thero was a period when Mr. Donglas needed friends and called upon thorn to como over and help him, that was tho time. And where was Cox? Mr. Cox know, when ho Bneakcd away nnd deserted Mr. Douglas, that he was acting contrary to the expressed wish of his constituents. Tho Democratio heart of this Distriot was warm in ils devotion to Stephen A. Douglas, and applauded his mainteinanre of tho principles of Popular Sovereignty. But Mr. Cox had turned traitor to Douglas, and not satisfied with turning traitor then, he now comes beforo the people aud asks them to indorse) his com so by his re-election, for the purpose of sheltering himself in his base desertion in this our time of trial. Mr. Cox eels out now that he voted for the English bill, and that S. A. Douglas advised him to do it. Laughter, That is what he slates, and that is what is charged in the Ohio State Journal and in the Columbus Cily Fact. It is published in the papers that Mr. Douglas acted the hypocrite. It is published on the authority of S. S. Cox. Look at the position in which Mr. Douglas would be plaeed hy this. Can anything be more unreasonable than the assertion of Mr. Cox? Mr. Douglas voted against the bill, and the en-tiro Illinois delegation voted against it. It must have been that Mr. Douglas was exceed ingly anxious for the bill to pass, or else be would not have recommended nuythiug of the kind. If Mr. Cox wished, he could have killed it in tho house. Is there a man here who is silly enough to believe that Douglas advised a course of this kind ? What did Douglas say about the matter ? I saw him immediately af ter that vote waB given. I went to see him at his house, when friends did not crowd about him as plentiful as they do now. He did not then Stand high in the estimation of tho Senate, but was being hooted and hissed at by some who but a short timo before were his friends. I called his attention to the subject, and told him what Mr. Cox had said, and asked him, "How does it happen that you advise our represonta live to vote one way, while you yourself vote another wav? "Did Mr. Cox Bay so? said Mr. Douirlas. "Yes, sir," said I, "he did." "Why, said Mr. Donglas, "I told him that the path of polioy was the path of duly, and that ho should stand firm. now, Mr. cox is saying tnat mr. Donglas acted the hypocrite, and told him to vote for the Entrlish bill, while he himself voted against it. I saw Douglas in the presence of Mr. Smith in June last, and called his attention to the matter. He said ha distinctly rccollooted. our prior conversation, and all about advising Cox to vote with him. It is surprising that Mr. Cox has not more regard for himself than to bring up an issue of veracity at this tim. MB. cox "D0POCS." Now Mr. Cox understood exactly what was going on hers while he was in Washington, for h sent a speoial messenger from Washington to Columbus while the question was being agitated, and wrote a communication filling two sheets, stating what were Douglas' arguments against tho bill, and asking his friends to consult on the subjeot, expressing himself opposed to the English Bill. We had Jacob Reinhard, Jas. II. Smith, Col. Anderson, Wayn Griswold, Charles J. Foster, and myself, and several other men in the Democratio party, and we consulted and telegraphed to him toopposethe English bill. Mr. Cox telegraphed back, "I breath easier; all right; Douglas will open out against itto-morrow." Laughter. To-morrow came, and the next day came and Mr. Cox voted for the English Bill in violation and defiance of tho instruction of bis constituency. He now tries to get out of it by saying that he telegraphed to Smith, and that Smith telegraphed back to him to do his duly, aud his frionds would stand by him. Mr Cox fails to tell that Thomas Miller joined with him in that telegraph. They didn't suppose, however, that he would think bis duty was to disregard the instructions lie had reoeivod. But he gives bis rote for th English Bill. There was no man more indignant nt this than Tom Miller. lie said he (Cox) had just hung on long enough to have his head out off. and then supported the Administration. I tell you that Mr. Cox found out that in fighting the Administration ho had not many frionds in Washington, and no chance of gaining the smile of power. He had no encouragement from the mou who bad tbe patronage his best friend having boen removed from office. Mr. Cox wanted to go back, and whon the vote came on the English bill, he felt very solemn about it ho felt so solemn about it that when the question came up, ho says, as is reported in the Conjretsional Globe, on page l'JOl, "I wish to Bay here, and in reference to the remarks which were made by my venerable colleague, Mr. Giddings. " Who would have thought that this man, who is almost but not quite as bad ns myself in his dotestation of negroes, would sympathize with Mr. Giddings but this is his speech. I will proceed with it: "Yestorday amid the exciting scone whioh then took plaoe in which he had my fullestsympathy I wish to say, fur myself and my colloaguos on this side of tho chamber, that we stood by the House bill reported there so long as we could in good faith, until tho last hopo of carrying it was gono. I stood with them as long as I saw any bore of currying it. Uut sir, now that this conference report has cut of every chance of seeing my views on the subjeot carried out, with no opportunity of amending the report itseir, 1 will do the best I oan under the oiroumstanoes, and I hope the gentleman will give mo credit at least for honest motives in the course I have taken." Now, let ran say berc you will see that Mr. Cox says that thore was no hopo of amending the report that ho states very distinctly in his last speech, wherein ho sympa thizes With Giddings. COVODB? HATTERS. Mr. Cox came bofore the Covod Committee, and when he oame there ho swore that the bill was changed after it was reported. I have tho bill hero as it was rcporfod, and 1 have it as it was passod. Iwillgivonny man n Pickaway county the best horse in the oounty if he will show me a change to the orossing of a "t" or tho dotting of an "i." Mr. Coi says it was changed to suit him. I say it was not, but that he voted for it just as it was reported. It was rammed down his throat after he had opposed it in the beginning and worked againsl it Btroog-ly. At the close of the discussion he got new light from some quarter, and went for the bill. What was this new light ( Uod only knows, for I don't. I oannot tell what peculiar vision burst upon him at that particular time, but I da know that in defiance of the instructions given him he voted for the bill. lie voted for it notwithstand ing he wrote this letter: House or Representatives, ) Washington City, Feb. 6, 1858. Gentlemen: lour invitation comes to me in the midst of an unexampled midnight strug-glo it the popular branoh of Congress. I can only say that if the same spirit which here inspires the Democratio members with whom I act will infuse nnd energizo your own expressions on the 8th instant, there will be a poten tial emphasis in favor or the right or the people of our own Slates and Territories to do as lliey please iu men- una uusiuues, uiuruui- moled by cabals and unencumbered by fraud A border oligarchy have not shown them selves to bo such angels that they should arro gate to themselvos that sceptre of authority which alone belongs to the people of Kansas. Whilo I have a vote in tho Congress it shall never be dragged into tins Lecompton mire. This is my deliberate judgment and my irrevo cable will. I cannot say or do otherwise so help ras God. Not while Douglas stands in tho Senate, not, while Wise Bpoaks from his Virgin innvatioan. not whilo Walker can give us wis dom, or Stanton can utter truth, or Stuart can nrguo the law, or Fornoy can wiold the pen, or the Northwest can echo tho aggregate thunder of those tribunes of the peoplo, shall this great. rong be done in the face or thirty millions of freemen. ours, sc., SAMUEL S.

He wrote tAaf letter, anu yet ne naa uocided to voto for giving millions of acres of land to the people of Kansas it tney would permit them selves to be dragged through the dirty Lecomp ton mire. That is tne man tnat i am not a Democrat if I don't bow down to and shout loud hazannas for. the cou;mbvs postoffice. . : Now. irentlemen, I wish to say a thing in re gard to tbe Columbus Postoffioe. Mr. Miller had been the best friend Mr. Cox ever had. He had stood steadily and faithfully by him; ho had him nominated for Congress. Miller was turned out of the Postofhcc in conscqucnoe to his devo tion to Douglas. Mr. Cox felt this, and was anxious tnat no suouiu oe restored simply on that aoeount. Mr. Miller swears, and so does Mr. Cox, that there was nothing said about the postoflice at the time he voted for the English jtil that mere was no arrangement, made un til Col. Medary was about being i amoved. can only give you the facts. I know nothing about it myself; but I do Bay this that two as reputable Democrats as we havo in tho city of Columbs, camuei Doyie ana uan. l.awrencc, told me that when Mr. Cox came home from Washington, aboul three weeks after voting for the English BUI, no told them that Mr. Mate: was to be restored to the postolEoe. It may he that theso men wore mistaken: it may be tha Mr. Cox did't know anything about it nt Hie time: but I cannot help thinkinir that he knew just exactly what was to be done. But I will not go on wilh this however. I want to come to those Covode Committee matters. In 1858 Mr, Cox pretended to be a great friend to Mr. Douglas, but when Mr. Douglas and tbe Administra tion fell out, we fiud his friendship consider ably weakened. Keaa tuo report of tho com mince, lead the testimony of Miller nnd Smith, and you can see that Mr. Cox enters intonn ar rangement Dy which th Vhio Statesman was to be sold out to the support of the Administra tion. Thrco weeks after Mr. Cox had given hi vote for the English Bill. Gov. Medary was at Washington. Me was not an instrument, but friend of Mr. Buchanan's. TUB TRICK OK AN ORGAN TO PLAT arhinistra TION TUNES. Gov. Medary, Thomas Miller and S. S. Cox drow up a writing in which thoy declare that they are going to be friends, and that the Ohio Statetman shall givo an acceptable support to Hi Administration of James Buchanan. Mr. Mil ler swears that there was some talk of about $0,(HK) of patronage in the shape of postoffioe blanks to be dispensed, and that in the event of the Statetman i supporting Buchanan he expected it would receive a portion of this patronage. Tber was 27,O0O worth to be printed. Th $27,000 worth was printed for $3,000 f 24,000 being a bonus. He thought the Statetman ought to be entitled to $t,000 of that. Mr. Miller and Mr. Cox agreed that the Ohio Statetman should desert Douglas and go for the Administration, and against him. I don't know whether they did this merely for the $0,000 anticipated. If they did, that was some compensation-then they were bribed to go against him. Perhaps they supported the Administration for no pecuniary compensations. If so, they deserted Douglas without any pay, and bound themselves to fight for the Administration, to back James Buchanan up, and break Douglas down as far as they could. These gentlemen came to Ohio. Mr. Miller had with him the agreement in Cox's own handwriting. They go to the Statetman office, and asked Jas. II. Smith what he had to say ' upon that matter. Smith says, I can't have anything to do with it. I am a Douglas man, and can't enter into this oontraot. There was a provision in tha agreoment that Smith was to be the Bole editor. Mr. Smith declined, and the consequence was that th paper dropped through, because nothing could be accomplished without Mr. Smith chose to father it; but Mr. Cox drew and signed tbe paper to make the Statetman support the Administration in its war against Douglas. In 1858, Mr. Cox was a candidate for Congress. He goes around now and says that Judge Donglas was a great friend of his, and very anxious for bis eleolion. He told the people that the Judge said that he would have walked clear from Chicago to vote for him. I don t know it may be that Judge Douglas said so. Perhaps Judge Douglas wrote letters to different parties, urging them to support Mr. Cox. I have no doubt, howover, that Mr. Cox solicited it, and that on being interrogated, Douglas diil say to him, I prefer you to your Ropublican opponent. Through this means Mr. Cox made votes for bis eleotion in Ootober, and ns a Douglas Demoorat he was relumed to Congress. Now he has no hesitancy in telling the people that he was returned by a bigger majority than before, because he opposed Judge Doug-, las and voted for the Englislf Bill. During the canvass of 1858 Mr. Cox, and his bosom friend Mr. Miller both pledged their honor that immediately after our October election Mr. Cox should go to Illinois and stump the Slate for the benefit of Judge Douglas. Now what did Cox do? Why, he never interested himself at all in behalf of Judge Douglas, but went djreotly to James Buchanan, and there begged for tho six thousand dollars for the Ohio Statetman. Instead of going to Washington to support Douglas, he went there to use his best endeavors to sell him out. Ha went there to complete his contract between Buchanan and the Statetman. He never cared about Douglas or tho oause of Popular Sovereignly, for which the Judge was contending, but oonoludod, after deliberation, that his best game was to keep quiet and let Douglas take care of himself, and fight his own battles with Buchanan and Lecompton- ism. He knew very well that if he took sides with Douglas the Administration would orush him and keep his friend out of the post-oflioe. S. 8. AND J. O. ENTER INTO ARRANGEMENTS. Well, brother Samuel S. made his arrange ments with his friend Jamos Buchanan, and Mr. Miller went back again into the post-ofnoe, through his instrumentality, and his alone. Now, my friends, 1 ask you, is there a man here who believes that if Mr. Cox had deolared himself in favor of Mr. Douglas, Mr. Buchanan would have appointed Miller lo tho post-office ? Cries of "No, not" . He got tho "patronage" from don'tknow it already, that no man evor gets that patronage until he brings good evidence that he is Mr. Buchanan's friend. Cries of "That's so." I would like to know when Cox has doserted Jtuohanan. I would like to Know whon he has favored Judge Douglas in any thing. I would like to know where Mr. Cox is now. He may "talk Douglas, but he don t "act" Douglas. Why, what says Mr. Forney in his letter to the Philadelphia J'rett. Why, gentlemen, Mr. Forney says and hes good authority in such matters writing from Washington, that Mr. Cox is regarded as being se cretly for Breckinridge and Lane. That's what he says. And what says Mr. Cox himself? Does he dare to say has he yet dared to say that if (ho election goes to tho Honse of Representatives . he will not vote for Breckinridge? Does he dare to say that he is in favor of the removal of Breckinridge office-holders. Where, I ask you, as candid men, has he shown himself in favor of Stephen A. Douglas against the Administration? Yes, and what party was it that disrupted your Conventions? What party is it that keeps Stephen A. Douglas from being President of Ihe United Stolen? It is not your Lincoln party, nor your Bell party, but it is your Breckinridge party. Applause. That Breckinridge Disunion party is sucking the Btrcngth out of the Democratic party, and that is the organization, if any, which will prevent tho election of Douglas. Mr. Cox has words of encouragement and consolation for the Seceders. He dare not tell them that they are bolters and disunionists. II o has not the manliness to come out and denounce them.- No, gentlemen, he may detest them, perhaps, ho may; but he has not tho voice of a freeman; and the Douglas man who dares speak against them, who refuses to vote for the man who is too cringing, too low to speak out the honest sentiments of his heart, is to be regarded as a traitor to the Democratio party. God grant that I may always be a traitor if treachery oonsists in opposition to this class of politicians. Applause. c i. . A CLEVER BREOKINRIPGH MAN. Gen. W. S. V. Prentiss is personally as clever a gentleman aB thero is in Ohio, but he is constantly ripping off the heads of Douglas men throughout tho Stato. He is the man who planned and brought togother tho Breckinridge State . Convention, and who has done more to injure Judge Douglas than any single man in Ohio. Mr. Cox is his constant companion and bosom, friend. They are always close together. Mr. Prentiss says that Cox satisfies him exactly. Mr. Prentiss stands by and supports Mr. Cox. He is engaged all the time in breaking down every Douglas man he can reach; yet Mr. Cox is bis peculiar pet. The Ohio Statetman, ' the organ of Mr) Cox, has bcemcompletely mnz-tlcd for Ihe Inst three weeks as against Breckinridge. Fearing it might injure Cox to denounce these foes of Douglas, it keeps perfeotly quiet and gentle. He controle9 the columns, and nothing that would in the least incense tbe friends of Breckinridge is published by the editors or allowed to appear in communications. Thus Ihe Statetman is stifled through his instru-mentality. But he makes direct propositions to the Breckinridge men, and states his willing- ness, and promises to serve them. What did Mr. Cox say to Doctor Dawson ? Now Doctor Dawson didn't disclose this conversation between him nnd Mr. Cox because be was opposed to Mr. Cox not nt all. The Breckinridge men were talking together one day about gelling out a candidate for Congress. Well, said the Doctor, "I was going along by the American House a few days ago, when Cox came along and saluted me and said, 'Doctor, of course you're going to vote for me.' That depends a great deal on how you behave yonrsell',' said tho Dootor. 'Why,' said Cox, 'I'm all right. I make no distinction between a Douglas man and a Breckinridge man. I told some Breckinridge men in Licking county that I would go over nnd make speechos for them at their meeting.' " This has been charged in Mr. Cox's teoth, and a deninl defied, nnd Mv. Cox has not dared publioly to dony tlio statement of Dr. Dawson, for no man who knows Dawson will for a moment doubt bis truthful ness. That is the kind of a Douglas man you aro going to vote for, is it? A man who has been engaged, and is engaged Btill in breaking up. the Douglas party in Ohio, and trampling the principles of Popular Sovereignty into the
